Epiphone - Hummingbird Tribute Heritage Cherry Sunburst Gaucher
The Epiphone Hummingbird Tribute Heritage Cherry Sunburst captures the spirit of traditional folk guitars, with an instantly recognisable dreadnought silhouette and a particularly warm high-gloss finish. The spruce top and mahogany back and sides create a balanced response that's perfect for both rhythmic playing and wide open chords. The Rounded C glued neck facilitates natural movement over the laurel fingerboard, while the Kalamazoo headstock adds a visual signature familiar to acoustic aficionados. Even the Hummingbird tortoise pickguard seems ready to accompany a few improvised choruses.
Presentation
The glued mahogany neck has a Rounded C shape designed to maintain a stable grip during extended chord changes. The 12-inch radius associated with the laurel fingerboard also promotes fluid movement, with a fairly natural feel when several positions are rapidly moved across the 20 frets.
Under stage lighting or in a more discreet living room, the Heritage Cherry Sunburst colour is an eye-catcher, with its deep shades and high-contrast gloss finish. The Hummingbird tortoise pickguard completes the ensemble, with a graphic identity strongly linked to the brand's historic acoustic models. Even the Kalamazoo headpiece retains a familiar silhouette that spans the generations without the need for unnecessary decoration.
